This is what your “enemy” thinks on another site, and as far as I can tell, he doesn’t seem to be any kind of racist, homophobe, or fanatic, just a typical blue‑collar guy, I hope I do not have to print a retraction: "The rush to control the narrative is in full swing. Ice agents came to town and k...

I was just thinking about that phrase (a day of infamy) yesterday, recalling that FDR stated that December 7th, 1941 would be "a date which will live in infamy" after Japan launched an attack on a territory of the US, and I was wondering why the attack by the US on the capital of a SOVEREIGN NATION ...

I listened to a few minutes of his press conference this morning - I couldn't stand more than a few minutes and turned it off.
